Appliance Removal in Rexburg & Southeastern Idaho

Old appliances are some of the heaviest, most stubborn items to get out of a house. A full-size refrigerator can weigh over 300 pounds. A washer-dryer pair stacked in a cramped laundry closet is a back injury waiting to happen. And even if you manage to wrestle an old stove out to the curb, most garbage services won’t touch it.

That’s why homeowners across Rexburg and Southeastern Idaho call ShapeUpIdaho when it’s time for old appliances to go. We bring the manpower, the equipment, and the truck. You just show us what needs to leave.

The Problem With Old Appliances

Appliances don’t just take up space — they can become genuine hazards. An unplugged freezer in the garage becomes a mold factory. A broken water heater sitting in the basement can leak and cause water damage. Old refrigerators and AC units contain refrigerants that are harmful to the environment if not disposed of correctly.

On top of that, most municipal waste programs and curbside pickup services won’t accept large appliances. That leaves you with two options: rent a truck and haul it to the dump yourself (plus pay the dump fees), or call someone who does this for a living.

We do this for a living. And we’ve gotten pretty good at it.

Appliances We Remove

If it plugs in, hooks up, or heats something in your house, chances are we’ll haul it away. Here’s what we pick up most often:

Kitchen Appliances

Refrigerators, freezers, ovens, ranges, stoves, dishwashers, microwaves, and trash compactors. Kitchen remodels are one of our biggest drivers — homeowners upgrade and need the old units gone before the new ones arrive.

Laundry Appliances

Washers and dryers, whether they’re side-by-side or stacked in a tight closet. We’ve pulled machines out of some impressively small spaces over the years.

Climate & Water Appliances

Water heaters, window AC units, dehumidifiers, and portable heaters. These units often end up forgotten in basements and utility rooms for years before someone decides to deal with them.

If you’re also clearing out the rest of a room — old cabinets, counters, or flooring — our kitchen demolition and house cleanout services pair well with appliance removal.

How Our Appliance Removal Works

We keep the process simple because dealing with old appliances is stressful enough.

Step one: You call us at (662) 666-6494 or submit our online form. Tell us what appliances you need removed, where they’re located, and whether they’re already disconnected.

Step two: We schedule a pickup window that fits your calendar — often the same week, sometimes the same day.

Step three: Our crew arrives on time, confirms the price, and gets to work. We disconnect standard plug-in appliances, carefully move them out of your home, and load them onto the truck. We use dollies, straps, and floor protectors to avoid any damage.

Step four: We take the appliances to the proper facilities. Metals get recycled. Refrigerants get handled by certified technicians. Anything reusable gets a second life.

Why Appliance Removal Matters for the Environment

This isn’t just about clearing space in your kitchen. Appliances contain metals, plastics, glass, electronic components, and sometimes hazardous substances like refrigerants and mercury switches. Throwing an old fridge in a ditch or dropping it at an unregulated dump creates real environmental problems.

At ShapeUpIdaho, we partner with recycling facilities that process appliances the right way. Steel, copper, aluminum, and other metals get reclaimed. Harmful chemicals get neutralized. It’s one of those things that takes a little extra effort, but it’s the right thing to do — especially here in Idaho where we actually care about our land and water.

Common Situations That Lead to Appliance Removal

We see the same scenarios play out week after week across Rexburg and the surrounding area:

• Kitchen or laundry remodel — New appliances are on the way and the old ones need to be gone yesterday.
• Moving out — You’re leaving a rental or selling a home and need to clear everything out.
• Appliance failure — The fridge died, the washer flooded, and now there’s a broken machine taking up space.
• Property management turnover — Between tenants, old or damaged appliances need to be swapped out.
• Estate or cleanout situations — You’re clearing a property that has outdated or non-functional appliances.

Whatever brought you here, the solution is the same: give us a call and we’ll take care of it.
